The Houston Astros eye their fourth win in five games in Friday’s Game 1 of their new series against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field.

The Astros (32-29) have won 3 of their last 4 games to overtake the 32-29 Seattle Mariners for the top spot in the AL West standings. Houston has displayed their elite pitching this week, scoring two shutout wins and a resounding 8-2 win over the Pirates in the finale of that series. Houston still sports a respectable 4.30 ERA over their last 5 games despite giving away 16 runs against Tampa Bay earlier this week.

The Guardians (33-28) are 2-3 in their last 5 games, but absorbing two losses in their three-game series with the Yankees left a bad taste in the mouth for this Cleveland team that still has World Series aspirations. Cleveland has dominated their opponents from the mound this week, parading an outstanding 2.51 ERA over their last five games. Unfortunately, Cleveland learned the hard way that scoring barely 4 runs a game would not be sufficient to outgun a high-powered Yankees team.
